Is there data to support reduced fire losses in the roofing industry directly attributable to the CERTA program?
A1: Yes. The number of serious roofing torch-related fire incidents has decreased significantly since 2004 when the CERTA program was implemented in the roofing industry. For example, in 2002, one major insurance company paid 35 roofing torch-related fire losses of more than $1,000 and 11 of more than $500,000. In 2005, after only one year of the CERTA program implementation, the same insurance company paid 13 losses of more than $1000, including only two of more than $500,000. The CERTA program had made a significant effect on the safe use of roofing torches throughout the roofing industry.
